Abstract:
A method for navigating a guide wire during a catheter procedure, the method includes changing the direction of a distal portion of the guide wire to advance past a junction in a desired path by rotating a proximal end of the guide wire a predetermined amount while the guide wire is being retracted to a point before the junction and then advancing the distal end of the guide wire past the junction through the desired path.
